8. Click the horizontal guide to the right of the planet picture and drag upward until the
ScreenTip reads 1.67 with an upward-pointing arrow. Drop the guide. It should align
with the top of the capital letters in the first line of the text placeholder.
9. Click the vertical guide you positioned near the left edge of the slide, hold down Ctrl,
and drag a copy of the guide to the right until the ScreenTip reads 4.50 with a rightpointing
arrow. Drop the guide by first releasing the mouse button and then releasing
the Ctrl key. Your slide should look like Figure 8-4.

10. Go to slide 4, click the gear picture, and drag it until the upper-left corner of the picture
snaps to the intersection of the vertical and horizontal guides.
11. Go to slide 5 and drag the picture down and to the left so its upper-right corner snaps
to the intersection of the guides.
12. Go to slide 6 and drag the picture up and to the left to snap to the intersection of the
two guides.
13. On the View tab, clear the Guides check box to turn off the guides.
14. Go to slide 7 and drag the picture up on the slide until you see a faint red dotted
horizontal line at its top. This Smart Guide indicates that the picture is at the same
vertical position as the text box to its left (see Figure 8-5). Release the mouse button to
drop the picture in the new location.
